This was confirmed by molecular genetic studies that showed that the four genera form a well-defined clade. Some authorities have grouped all the species into a single large Coccothraustes genus but this is usually split. Clements and colleagues include the evening grosbeak and the hooded grosbeak in Coccothraustes but the International Ornithologists' Union retain only the hawfinch in the genus.Molecular genetic studies have shown the finches with large beaks in the Chaunoproctus, Rhynchostruthus and Neospiza genera are not closely related. The similar bill morphology is the result of convergent evolution due to the similar feeding behaviour."@en }
